Did I ever mention, you can boot into these /<qual>/!?! initrd context: "mount root partition $ROOTDEV at $TARGET" mkdir /fun mount -o bind $TARGET/<qual> /fun exec switch_root /fun /sbin/init Mount output get's confusing about multiple lines mentioning $ROOTDEV, esp. for init.d/fsck, but IMHO fsck should be done in initrd, and not single-user mode with read-only mount and with binaries from that broken partition. - - other story. Or have it on separate partition - like the traditional "I switch distros" aproach. - -- Michael Weber Gentoo Developer web: https://xmw.de/ mailto: Michael Weber <x...@gentoo.org> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iF4EAREIAAYFAlEI3zEACgkQknrdDGLu8JBrLgEAgI2m92etcKYF7/5wWEmJc1DZ 3apcjuDokN3WxUcxDdIA/A67DJBV5OKmVxX9wSaeomakg8Ql5oCqETXM6b9n1uy+ =Lkq3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
